  • 1 pound sweet potatoes

  • ¼ cup butter

  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon orange zest

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed

  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

  • ½ teaspoon maple flavored extract

Directions

  1. Boil sweet potato whole in skin for 40 to 50 minutes until done. Run cold water over the sweet potato, and remove the skin. Break apart in a large bowl.
